@LillianRSims @JerrySoucyRN @AlexAndersonMD Ya know when ever my kid said no, and stomped her foot or some such, I'd smile (genuinely)lean down pull her up as I stood up fully, here face at my face level, eye to eye with her legs dangling in the air, and say, "DO YOU REALIZE HOW MUCH BIGGER I AM THAN YOU LITTLE GIRL?" 1/
@LillianRSims @JerrySoucyRN @AlexAndersonMD cause it tickled me pink that she'd even try dat. There's nothing like the physical sensation that YOUR BODY RECOGNIZES of who youre up against to turn the conversation. That she had the guff to "try me" I thought was terrific and DID NOT WANT TO SQUASH THAT OUTTA HER. It's a 2/
@LillianRSims @JerrySoucyRN @AlexAndersonMD hard world out there and shes gonna need every once of that guff. So when she'd look down after getting I was so much bigger I'd say, since we gotta do this, or since you don't wanna do that WHATS YOUR SOLUTION? If it was a valid/solid, we did that, or tried that to see if it 3/
@LillianRSims @JerrySoucyRN @AlexAndersonMD worked, if not, it was, "you got 3 minutes to get it together on the inside to do what we gotta do on the outside."

I'd also say
1) While a single mom, I only had one child
2) My life was centered around rasing her even at our poorest (which was a steady variable) so it was 4/
@LillianRSims @JerrySoucyRN @AlexAndersonMD not about my timing and what I wanted it, was about the time she needed to grow!
In other words my life WAS SLOWED DOWN TO MATCH HER GROWTH NEEDS. I was not struggling to speed her up. The world was gonna do enough of that! 5/
@LillianRSims @JerrySoucyRN @AlexAndersonMD That in and of itself took a lot of the stress off me that I see a lot of other parents taking on!
And
3) the last thing I'd say was I did not relate to her in stages, I just related to her as she was and tried to identify the underlying "talent or ability" she was displaying 6/
@LillianRSims @JerrySoucyRN @AlexAndersonMD that was currently TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL (because remember to master ANYTHING YOU FIRST GOTTA MAKE A MESS) and help her shape how she was responding so she could get control of that and harness it for good, for growth.
7/
@LillianRSims @JerrySoucyRN @AlexAndersonMD That's it, plus a lot of humor and love which y'all no doubt have for your own kids
Best advice out of all three SLOW IT DOWN, think it through and don't let your kids make you unhappy, it will make them unhappy and feel like a burden even if that's not how you really feel. 8/
@LillianRSims @JerrySoucyRN @AlexAndersonMD Kids are funny, they feel everything is their fault cause they were there. Once we grow up NOTHING IS OUR FAULT. Responsibility is a good medium to strike here.

Youre not t/victim here—just as WP must separate themselves from/dismantle white supremacy you must separate yourself from Zionism & dismantle it—THEY ARE ONE & T/SAME

T/tolerance & complacency of both moderate WP & Jews is what brought t/world Judaism & Christianity to this end
If WP, b/EU/US Jews & Christians CANT EVEN take responsibility for t/EU/US Empire white supremacy/Zionist (WS/Z) white settler nation genocides & apartheid structural institutional & cultural WS/Z genocides going on they’ve tolerated & benefited from
There’ll be NO CHANGE
Yall WP need to be able to grasp—when it comes to White Supremacy Zionism—complacency IS COMPLICITY

@cooltxchick @notcapnamerica White supremacy is a psychopathy period!
After umpteenth generations of WP enacting such sadistic inhuman behavior (whether they started it are active haters or maintain it as t/silent white mod maj for their own benefits) there’s no way it has not altered their DNA! Consider
1/
@cooltxchick @notcapnamerica just the mechanics of Mendelian genetics—that would yield (between 2 parents both with that gene either dominant or recessive) approx 3 out 4 off spring falling somewhere on that spectrum (not all psychopaths are Bundy or Dexter) with possibly 1 having a conscience
2/
@cooltxchick @notcapnamerica that pulls them to leads sincere empathy caring & ethical moral & humane behavior.

The evidence for that is found via voter roles
3/4th or 75% and up of WP reliably vote GOP and always downticket regardless of POTUS vote
We can consider the few DEM POSTUS maj wins the anomaly

@DropSiteNews Yall realize thanks to the US,
Lybia turned into a well known slave market selling migrants refugees men women (forced marriages) babies toddlers etc

For t/US-Israel to even suggest sending Palestinians there is tantamount to human trafficking & supplying the slave markets

The tendency is to think you can’t keep this kind of thing quiet and that the more ppl that know means it can’t go on for very long—but as all can see that’s just not the case.

There is a circle of ppl and LOTS of them who are directly engaged in heinous activity
